Trial summary

We previously performed a study to create formula for the optimal insertion depth of left internal jugular vein catheter in infant, which was registered at cris.nih.go.kr. We found that two calculation methods using height and the distance between landmarks (0.11 × height (cm) + 0.19 and 1.02 × I-A-B (cm) + 1.55… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: External Validation of Predictive Formula for Optimal Insertion Depth of Left Internal Jugular Venous Catheter in Infants

We previously performed a study to create formula for the optimal insertion depth of left internal jugular vein catheter in infant, which was registered at cris.nih.go.kr. We found that two calculation methods using height and the distance between landmarks (0.11 × height (cm) + 0.19 and 1.02 × I-A-B (cm) + 1.55, where I was insertion point of needle, A was the most prominent point of the sternal head of the left clavicle, and B was the midpoint of the perpendicular line drawn between the sternal head of the right clavicle and an imaginary line between the nipples) were clinically feasible to determine the insertion depth of left internal jugular vein catheter. In this study, we will compare the actual insertion depth with the insertion depth determined from above two calculation methods in other 46 infants.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 4Fr central venous catheter insertionProcedure or surgery

    The central venous catheter is placed at left internal jugular vein in infant, and its tip is confirmed by transthoracic echocardiography.

Study groups in NCT03025178
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Central venous catheterizationExperimentalCentral venous catheterization will be performed using 4Fr central venous catheter at left internal jugular vein in infant. The tip of central venous catheter will be confirmed by transthoracic echocardiography. The actual insertion depth of central venous catheter will be compared to the predicted insertion depth derived from two calculation methods using height and the distance between the anatomical landmarks.
Receives: Procedure: 4Fr central venous catheter insertion

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The actual insertion depth of central venous catheter

    The actual insertion depth of central venous catheter placed at left internal jugular vein

    Measured: About 5 minutes during central venous catheterization (10 minutes after anesthetic induction)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The differences between the actual insertion depth and the predicted insertion depth derived from two calculation methods

    The differences between the actual insertion depth and the predicted insertion depth derived from two calculation methods

    Measured: About 5 minutes during central venous catheterization (10 minutes after anesthetic induction)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 4Fr central venous catheter insertion in people with Central Venous Catheter and Infant, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The actual insertion depth of central venous catheter (time frame: About 5 minutes during central venous catheterization (10 minutes after anesthetic induction)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Sep 2019.
